……
The sudden singing startled everyone, who looked around in a panic.
"Who? Who's singing?"
"The sound is weird, where did that noise come from?"
Fang Tiesheng was still poking and prodding with trembling hands.
Why did he suddenly make a noise? He didn't dial any number to talk to anyone.
Ya Ya listened, nodding her head. This song was really interesting; it only had two verses repeated over and over again. She wanted to learn it! (Sound of clapping and dancing)
Grandma Liu was also startled, but seeing how calm the little bud in her arms was and how it was humming along, she knew that it must be coming from that thing called a cell phone, and it must be a very normal phenomenon on the other side.
"Don't panic, it's from this phone." Grandma Liu raised her voice a bit; the song was too loud.
Everyone stopped looking around and stared at the phone in Fang Tiesheng's hand with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension.
The images on the small board are still changing.
After a while, everyone got used to the loud singing and even found it a bit festive!
"Hey? I remember yesterday Uncle said this thing can talk to people from a long distance, right? Is this Nannan's aunt's voice?"
"Is her aunt singing? When are you going to stop? I wanted to say thank you to her!"
"Auntie Nannan, you're such a kind person, and you sing so well! Everyone in Lotus Village wants to thank you!" Old Sun shouted into the phone.
Fang Tiesheng, who made the sound, couldn't tell if he had dialed a phone, who was on the other end, or if it was some other function. He could clearly see that the large screen in the shop was playing Nezha, with both sound and images, like there was a stage set up inside.
The singing was mostly done by the actors inside, not by folk singers.
He hurriedly put on his reading glasses and examined the phone screen. He looked at the word "ringtone" and saw the character for "sound". He tried to swipe the green icon after that line of text, and the icon immediately turned gray, and the lively singing stopped abruptly.
He patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief; so this was called a bell.
Hearing everyone whispering and passing on messages, Old Fang quickly explained to them, "It's not Nannan's aunt. I haven't dialed the number yet. It's just something that's being played out in the phone. I haven't had time to figure it out yet."
Everyone suddenly realized, and then blushed a little, realizing that they had been thanking the wrong person all along.
"Will dialing that number allow me to speak with people in that area?" Li Guixiang asked softly. She wanted to thank the fairy named He Miao properly, because she was able to save her life thanks to He Miao's help.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked on with anticipation, eagerly watching Fang Tiesheng and Ya Ya.
Fang Tiesheng thought for a moment, then took out his notebook and carefully pressed the numbers on his phone one by one.
This was the phone number he specifically asked Cao Xiulian for after he rented the house.
The entire village held their breath, gathered even closer, and waited for the next development without daring to utter a sound.
Fang Tiesheng solemnly pressed the green round button at the bottom, and the phone immediately emitted a "beep beep beep" sound and then displayed a call failure message. He dialed again, but it was the same.
It seems that won't work.
The group was somewhat disappointed, but they quickly stopped dwelling on it, as they had been separated by a very long time, not only in terms of the years that had passed.
Li Guixiang was also a little disappointed, but she quickly recovered. There's still a voice recorder; that one can record a fairy's voice, so it should be able to record hers too.
After the little incident, no one mentioned any more brilliant ideas; they just waited patiently for Fang Tiesheng to come up with that list with prices and names.
Fang Tiesheng was much calmer now. He carefully looked at the words and finally found the SMS entry. With a light tap, he saw something labeled "list".
With a tap, a dense array of large characters instantly filled the screen.
Dr. Chen also came over, wearing his reading glasses to examine it carefully: "Hey? There's so much written on this, cement, steel bars... wow, it's all there."
"It also has a use. Look how neatly these cells are arranged. This way of recording is so clear and easy to understand! But why does it look like it's missing a beginning and an end? Why isn't the second half of the text showing up?" Fang Tiesheng muttered along with him.
Just as I was wondering, Ya Ya stretched out her little hand and gently slid her finger to the left on the screen. The text on the screen moved to the left, revealing all the content hidden behind it.
Fang Tiesheng was utterly shocked. Could this really be done? It was like a real piece of paper hidden inside; you just slid it out from the other side!
The ones below should be the same.
Fang Tiesheng lightly touched the screen with his finger and swiped up. Hey, it really is!
The hidden text appeared page by page, one after another, which was quite magical.
Zhao Junchen's table was very well prepared. It not only listed the price but also included the purpose of each item, as well as the steps and precautions for use. The concrete mixing ratio was also included in a complete table.
Considering that the old man also mentioned building walls and blocking water, several different mortar mixes were also prepared for sealing the joints.
To help his clients better understand why this combination was necessary and what the downsides of haphazard combinations would be, a small note was added below:
The higher the cement grade, the higher the strength of the concrete. The mud content of the sand determines the strength and durability of the concrete.
Be sure to pay attention to the amount of sand used, and make sure to clean it thoroughly.
Large-particle aggregates can significantly improve the skeletal support of concrete. However, if the particle size is too large, it is difficult to distribute them evenly during pouring and vibration. Therefore, large-particle aggregates are suitable for large-volume foundation projects such as dams and deep foundations of tall buildings, while small-particle aggregates are mostly used for small building components.
Writing this down is also to make it easier for the old man to discuss with the villagers what he really needs when he returns to the village, so that he doesn't waste time going back and forth and bring the wrong large stones and soft cement.
Dr. Chen and Fang Tiesheng's eyes lit up as they looked at the package; it was so complete!
"Good heavens!" Doctor Chen slapped his thigh. "This is practically chewed up! This young man is a real gem! I have to try making it myself!"
Zhao Hu was scratching his head in frustration. What should he do? He managed to squeeze in, but he couldn't understand it!
Fang Tiesheng and Dr. Chen glanced at what they had brought back. There were only two small bags of cement, enough to make just a tiny amount for the experiment. It was definitely not suitable for making a cesspool, but it could be used to reinforce the retaining wall at the back.
The two men exchanged a glance and nodded: "Tiger, come here."
